With a brand new season of League of Legends almost upon us, fans will be quite excited to see how their favorite teams stack against the rest of the competition in 2021.
And when it comes to the LPL, what competition is better to gauge the strength of the teams before heading into season 11 than the League of Legends Demacia Cup?
Much like Korea's KeSPA Cup, the Demacia Cup offers a great opportunity for teams to try out new strategies and give their more rookie players a chance to get some stage experience.
It’s the litmus for the teams, and it will give analysts a lot of insights into the power rankings of the newer squads, who were formed during the League of Legends preseason.
There will be a total of 17 LPL teams participating in the League of Legends Demacia Cup, along with three LDL teams and four amateur rosters.
Now, it’s very likely that an LPL team will be the ones to emerge on top, but there will be a lot of upsets along the way, and a team of rookies might just start to make things more difficult for the veterans.
